Nagta You turn toward the west doors of the hanger and try to see the source of the disturbance. You can see several people on the other side of the door, and recognize Garmen. He is climbing something, a rope from the look of it, along with a man you don't recognize. There doesn't appear to be any further commotion. Cale says something to the man he was speaking to before, and then heads through the door. He is followed by three of the four men.
-
Garmen - The man you are following goes up the ropes, so you continue to follow.
The ropes are knotted along their entire length and make climbing very easy.
Your strength is 3D. You roll 21, with a 6 on the wild. You easily climb the rope to the third floor, where you are greeted by a grease covered man in coveralls.
Sorry about the climb, it's just that the computers we are using to diagnose the problem are bigger than the droid, so we just hauled it up here. The room we are using was the air traffic control room, and there are still some functional computers in there.
The two men lead you to a large room with five banks of terminals. There is a droid near the center set of terminals, with some of its innerds hanging out and others spilled onto the floor. Some of the parts look charred. There is also a laser welder on the floor next to the droid.
-
Rava - You assure the man next to you that Ka is not evil, and give him a brief lesson in lightsaber trivia.
No.. most of the time it does but in this case it just the way he made his saber... A jedi's light saber can be any color depending on the crystal... he just picked a red colored crystal.
Kylin speaks to you and Ka,
The hidden coridor should be on the rear wall on the lift. If it no longer function, you might as well cut it down to.
and then walks past you into the lift that Ka and yourself cleared, looking for an activation panel. He seems to find it. Before heading into the newly opened door you concentrate, letting the force flow through you. You focus on what you want, the knowledge you seek: who is nearby?
Your sense skill is 2D. You roll 7.You can feel Ka's presence to your left, a presence you know well. Although you can see Kylin in the lift, less than ten meters away, you can barely sense him, the same goes for Garmen, but the stranger who has just started to climb is completely intangible. You have had limited contact with Garmen and Kylin, and none with the stranger this must be having an effect on your skills.
Ilon walks up to you, causing a slight sensation in the force, but no more than Kylin and Garmen,
What's going on here?
You pass through the door in the back of the lift, and enter a dark room. The light coming through the door lights up the corner of the room opposite to you. There are stairs leading down to a lower level, you head down there, but it is too dark to see.
-
Camon - You turn your attention, and your aim, to the door. You see Garmen begin climbing up a rope, but there doesn't seem to be anything to worry about. You hear Cale speak to the men, and then he heads through the door. Three of the men follow him.
-
Cale - You talk to the man next to you,
Sounds good. We have a job to do here. When we're done, we'll see about fixing that droid and getting off this rock. Feel free to join us if you don't feel like waiting up here.
Then you walk across the hanger and through the open west door. You find Ilon speaking to Rava as he enters the lift, and Ka. Kylin is in the lift as well. Three of the men from the hanger have followed you, and two more men approach from behind you, and speak to Kylin.
-
Ilon - You approach Rava,
What's going on here?
You turn to check on Garmen, who is quickly climbing up a rope to play with his new toy. Rava has entered the lift and passed through the door that Kylin opened in the back. Ka enters the lift as well, keeping an eye out for trouble as Rava enters the darkened room. Kylin is standing in the lift, and the two men who were in the other room approach the lift. Kylin speaks to the man who has left, but one of the others answers him. THere are also three new men in the room.
-
Kylin - You move to the destroyed door,
The hidden coridor should be on the rear wall on the lift. If it no longer function, you might as well cut it down too.
You enter the lift and try to open the secret door properly. There is a gap in the wall near the top of the lift in the far corner. Looking out of place, and obviously not caused by damage you put your hand into the hole and feel a small button on the bottom. You press the button, and a wall panel slides out of the way revealing a darkened room. Rava moves past you, and into the room. You turn to speak to the stranger,
How many people do you need to evacuate, and to where? We might be able to provide transpation.
The man and Garmen have left, but the man's two companions have come up behind you and answer the question.
There are 10 of us in all, but we only need transportation for 8, since two of us, the Captain, and the lieutennant have their own fighters. As for where, that really doesn't matter, just anywhere that doesn't have a lot of Imp activity, but does have a decent star port.
-
Athena - You continue to cover Cale. He speaks to the men and then turns and walks out the door. The leader sends one of his men through the south door, and then he and the two remaining men follow Cale.
-
Ka - Rava enters the lift and you go with him, stopping by the entrance to the darkened room to allow your eyes to adjust. Your lightsaber gives off enough light to see Rava as he stands halfway down the stairs in the far corner of the room. It is apparently dark in the room below as well. You pass Kylin in the doorway and then enter the room with Rava, stopping at the stairs.
